Release from Self-Made Limitations

⁷Before the greatness that lives in you, your poor appreciation of yourself and all the little offerings you give slip into nothingness.”

⁷When you have learned to accept what you are, you will make no more gifts to offer to yourself, for you will know you are complete, in need of nothing, and unable to accept anything for yourself. ⁸But you will gladly give, having received. ⁹The host of God need not seek to find anything.

If you are wholly willing to leave salvation to the plan of God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace yourself, salvation will be given you. ²Yet think not you can substitute your plan for His. ³Rather, join with me in His, that we may release all those who would be bound, proclaiming together that the Son of God is host to Him. ⁴Thus will we let no one forget what you would remember. ⁵And thus will you remember it.

Call forth in everyone only the remembrance of God, and of the Heaven that is in him. ²For where you would have your brother be, there will you think you are. ³Hear not his appeal to hell and littleness, but only his call for Heaven and greatness. (A Course in Miracles, T-15.III.8:7;10:7–12:3. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

The choice to value specialness is the choice for littleness. We imprison ourselves in a tiny box of limited time and space. God has given us the Holy Spirit to help us release ourselves from this self-imposed limitation. He will teach us how to forgive our wish for specialness. Forgiveness welcomes God’s gift of His Love, which is given without limitations.

Our judgments depend on perceiving ourselves as separate from an outside world. Today we practice accepting the Holy Spirit’s true perception which overlooks the appearance of differences. He shows us the Love the joins us with the greatness of Heaven.
